Powerful and fast!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the Galaxy S26 Ultra yesterday and so far I’m really impressed. I chose it because I wanted a phone that could handle pretty much everything I do without feeling like I’m constantly pushing it to its limits. I use my phone for taking pictures, browsing, messaging, watching videos, researching things, managing my day and using AI tools, so the Ultra seemed like the best fit.
The large, bright display is one of the first things I noticed. It makes reading websites, looking at photos, watching videos and multitasking much easier. The camera system is another big reason I went with it. I like being able to quickly take a picture and have plenty of detail, especially when I'm taking photos in less-than-perfect lighting.
I can also see the AI features becoming a regular part of my routine. Things like Circle to Search and photo editing should save me time when I’m trying to identify something, find information or clean up a picture.
For everyday use, I expect it to be especially useful for keeping up with messages and appointments, researching things on the go, taking photos, checking email, navigating, and keeping all the little things I normally juggle throughout the day in one place. The battery and fast charging are also important because I don't want to constantly worry about finding a charger.
I've only had it for a day, so I'm still discovering everything it can do, but my first impression is that I made the right choice.

I love this phone but it's tough to downgrade from
on September 19, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I kept on breaking my previous Samsung folds and they're incredibly expensive to repair. After last fold died on me I downgraded to the s26 plus ultra.
A good phone, it gets hung up sometimes and runs a little slow unless I restart.

Cool phone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Coming from a iphone16 pro ant the switch was easy and quick. Using the device has made me realize I made the right choice and wish I had done it years ago.
I use it for cloud gaming and it don't skip a beat. The snapdragon chip is blazing fast camera is awesome and the built in privacy screen is neat, but I really don't use it much. This phone has been a 10 of 10s.

Missing features/issues
on September 18, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ive been using the S series since its inception. I even have my s1 still but ive been using the Note series since the Note 3 so i have a experience with Samsung phones. While the S26 ultra is a decent phone, i feel i should have just kept my 24 ultra because there are some lost features in the S26 ultra. For starters it now tells me that Samsung Passwords isnt recognized by Samsung Internet and not sure of the why. Then there is the Spen. The Spen can no longer be used with the camera. Also the shape and style of the Spen. Its thinner and not very ergonomically designed. I havent broken one yet but its difficult to hold on to and a replacement is ridiculously more expensive. Overall its a decent phone but doesnt justify the cost to me as well as the S24 ultra.

Great Battery
on September 18, 2026
Posted by: divorze
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Last year I bought a new phone and while it was good, the samsung was far better than what I had expected. I chose to go ahead and get the S26 Ultra as the battery life was just amazing and far exceeded my expectations. Its easily used for several hours of the day with heavy demand without the need of charging till the end of the day. Sometimes with my regular use, it'll even last till the next morning before I head off to work. I'm still getting used to everything but this phone is great and I'm glad I chose to upgrade

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the galaxy s26 ultra for the s-pen and 1 terabyte of storage. It's very fast and capable. I love the customization and the camera features. Just wish it came in green or orange. Very happy so far.
